JANK23H:
The slaves to most Niger Delta tribes making themselves important.You should be thankful to the British for making you all relevant.

You Minorities should be thankful to the British.
No need to wonder why most of you can fit into Ifeanyi Ubah mini stadium

proeast:
The Nupeng or whatever they call themselves are mad. The Imo State chapter is fighting Hopeless Uzodinma who refused to bulge so they decided to escalate it by involving the entire Nupeng SE.

I had a heated argument with one fuel station management that closed their gate against motorists when I have been on the on line since. The situation is even worse in Owerri but I filled my tank when they gave the 2 weeks ultimatum and only wanted to top it today.

Imagine. The useless Nupeng want to be stupid and it's SE that they chose.
After crippling the economy for the week, they will blame it on IPOB.
Bunch of childish people.

Kogi1stson:
God bless Kogi state
God bless Nigeria

Na still Igbo lands though

Kogi becomes oil producing state through Igbo communities trapped under the Northern state.
Don't worry my brothers, you won't be left behind

Anago55:
Something big seems to be on the offing

Same thing here in Abakaliki

Exactly. It doesn't make sense.
There is Monday sit at home every week so statistically the rate of fuel consumption in Igboland should reduce tremendously. So it doesn't make sense for fuel scarcity to start from Igboland.
Something is wrong somewhere

And what might be the cause?

Cudeze4:
How can you back up your claim?

The day Nigeria divides will be the day you fill find out that the whole North put together are not up to 15m.
All of them, both Hausa, Kanuri, TIV etc.

Just like the way this VAT saga is shocking some people because those that have high VAT on Paper are actually worried while SE with low VAT on paper looks unconcerned.
That day will shock all of you. That day you will know your own true population

As it stands now, tomorrow will confirm whether this current Ipob leadership have lost the Igbo masses or not.

The continued sit at home every Monday despite IPOB cancellation showed that Ndigbo actually isn't controlled by one person. They follow not because of the person but what he/she stands for

Whazar:
never mind the dunce, she hates all men now except her father lets see who will impregnate her

her father I guess

That's too harsh. Before I thought this lady was a Misandrist but now that she opened up a little I've realised that she is not one but someone suffering from serious ANDROPHOBIA.
The type that Japanese teenage girls that have gone through male induced trauma like rape suffer from.
She needs a foreign or more precisely, a Japanese therapist because Nigerians or Africans might not understand the severity of this condition.

Chai. We need to leave this country very fast.
Just watch, Nobody will be held accountable for this. The state purse will still pay for this nonsense

Whazar:
so you mean you served as his sex slave for long before you ja yourself haha

the future is doomed

@emboldened is exactly what I figured out. Chai, I am beginning to pity this girl.
This is exactly why girls below 16 shouldn't be allowed to have sexual relationships or keep secrets from their parents.
Had it been she knew, she would have complained to her people and the dude summarily arrested.
Its not too late to press charges though.
But that is still not enough reason to hate everything with penis.

So your issue with men all these while was because a man blackmailed you with sex tape.
Well, I still don't know why some people fall for sextape blackmail. Like why will I be at your mercy for a video of me and you having sex?
Maybe it's different for women.
Anyways, FutureIsFemale is there any where or any how you can post the sex tape? So that we can confirm if it was worth the blackmail. Please its just for academic purposes only. I am just curious

SlayerForever:
If it is about the claim in the second paragraph he is 100% correct. It seems you're not familiar with that issue. Check Ibrede, Igbuku, Onogboko, Osafo, Ige etc etc.

I don't think you understand the Man.
He is neither here nor there. He never said that Aboh is Igboland.
He is still maintaining neutrality, that is Igbo/Bini/Isoko.
In other words, Aboh could be considered as a "No man's land" from his submission. But that doesn't mean Ndigbo will dive in when the Indigenes never proclaimed that they are on any of the three party, Infact they are openly against pro-Igbo movement.
Go back to the thread from the Aboh dude when he was claiming Igbo. His intention was made clear that is
"OK I am now igbo. I have considered to be Igbo after much persuasion and grovelling from Ndigbo, but Aboh must be reinstated as the commercial hub of Igboland over Onitsha then Aboh again shall be considered as the Cradle of Igbo Civilisation with Aboh Obi considered as the king of Ndigbo"
This is exactly what his thread was saying. Go back and read it again. Read in between the lines.
The Dude is never Igbo and won't in the near future. Don't let Aboh of all people play the Ikwerre game on Ndigbo over again.

ZZ22:
The only thing I see there is Isoko giving the people confused about their Igboness the Isoko tag like a pet. They are free to remain in confusion if that is their wish

Exactly

SlayerForever:
This is cyber bullying. Accept his identity as he projects it and treat him accordingly.

Abohboy:
Aboh is a mixed town and so is the whole of Ndokwa land both Igbo and Isoko live there, in Aboh town there are different divisions or quarters for different ethnic groups other the years different people came and set up base in Aboh but it was ultimately an Igbo area so to assimilate the Isoko immigrants had to make their names Igbo and even celebrate Igbo festivals held in Aboh.

Read this post from the horses mouth.
You are welcome

Efewestern:
Our argument holds no bearing and it will end it here.

Thanks for yielding on time before we dive deeper into history so that you won't disgrace yourself and the entire Isoko people further.
Okolo being Bini? Mtcheww
Make Bini people no catch you

ZZ22:
Where is Don Jazzy from? They wrote in Wikipedia he is Isoko but Don Jazzy once said he is Igbo. Meanwhile his father's full name is Collins Ifeanyi Owuneme Ajere Enebeli.

I'm not saying Isoko is Igbo and I dont want them to be.

Nna same here. I don't want anything to do with those people. Instead, we will dash them the whole of Ndokwa.
The Bini that Ika brought to us is enough wahala

kmcutez:
I lived in Lagos all my life, visited delta when I was a kid, so don’t know much.

Well, since your mom said she is from Aboh, Abohboy will clarify you.
Whatever he says is fine by me. If he confirms her people (Aboh) is either Isoko or Bini, I am OK with it.
Thank you

kmcutez:
She said her none of her parents/great are Igbos. They are from Aboh. She also mentioned a place where they are from called Adiae Obiaka. What does that mean?

Abohboy, Over to you.
Are you people isoko?

kmcutez:
My mum also said there are lots of isoko communities in Ndokwa east where her parents are from. Don’t run mad from land issues o.

Showing concerns about Territory is the biological deposition of a male specie. Which by God's grace I am a member of, thus proving why I should be concerned about another group coercing part of the territory I represent.


As for your mother telling you that there are lots of "isoko communities" in Ndokwa proves the very low level they exist in the local Government. Anything that is the majority doesn't need research to figure out from the pack.
If Isoko is that significant in Ndokwa, you should have been mentioning names with distinct identity not how "this person bearing Igbo name, looks like Igbo and practice Igbo custom is actually Isoko" then backed with one unverified story/folktale or the other

kmcutez:
I know Chioma is an Igbo name. That is why I said so in the first place because it was strange name for an isoko person to bear. I’ve never seen an isoko person bear the name Chioma except my mum. My father is isoko, my mom is isoko. I said both my parents are isoko. My first and last name sounds isoko, same as my brothers and sisters and some of my relatives. Deal with it. I will ask my mum where both my great grand parents are from.

Nobody said you are Igbo but thank God you managed to prove my post right.
Your Father and Mother who are Isoko made sure non of your siblings bear Emeka or Chiamaka which proves that no two Isoko parents can name their Children Full Igbo names for no reason.
As for your mother. Find out how she got her Igbo name.
Even if she is full blooded igbo, that still doesn't make you Igbo because your own father is not.
You are a full Isoko lady my dear but your identity doesn't decide that of your local Government or Neighbours.
Ndokwa is Igbo land.
I hope this helps.
Thank you

Afonja lawyers have finally betrayed this man that was fighting for their freedom.

Chai, we knew it was a matter of time but never did we imagine it will be so soon.

May God never allow us to jam an Afonja Today.
Amen

Abohboy:
You realize that different areas can have different people living within them right? And that different ethnic groups can be within a single LGA? If you don't know this then you're an idiot becaus that should be obvious to anyone who knows anything about Nigeria, Delta State has 5 major ethnic groups including Igbo, Urhobo, Isoko, Itsekiri and Ijaw and where i'm from Aboh is an igbo community

Your behaviour here showed how toothless you are to non Igbo but vocal when it is time to push Ndigbo under the bus.
Step aside, let me handle all of them on behalf of the Good people of Ndokwa.


Madam kmcutez, your turn to be clarified.
First of all you have to acknowledge and accept that Africa is a patrichal society. So the ethnicity of the father of a child goes a long way in dictating the identity of the child.
You've been bent on your mother's Igbo name to prove that Isoko bears igbo name but never mentioned anything about your father, his ethnic or clue about his own name. No two Isoko parents will give birth and name the baby full Igbo names except as a tribute to an Igbo man who can be a very close family friend or mentor (eg Ex Gov Rotimi Amaechi).
The question here should not be the Igbo name of your mother but the ethnicity of your father.
If your father is Isoko, forget the Igbo name of your mother. You are Isoko.
If the father of your mother is Isoko and due to some circumstances she was given Igbo name, She is also Isoko.

Isoko doesn't own Ndokwa or Igbo lands in Bayelsa. Any Isoko in Ndokwa is simply a mere extremely small fraction. They dont represent Ndokwa. Ndokwa is Igbo although the contemporary people say they are Bini.
Thank you

Efewestern:
Lying? What will I benefit from lying?

First, I've given you all use of okoro amongst the Edoid groups and second, some of these groups had no contact with igbo, so it's just impossible for them to borrow a word from a group of people they never had contact with.

Okoro was used by ancient Bini kingdom and we all know how the Bini influenced most groups in southern Nigeria, that was how tribes like Itsekiri and Ilaje got to make use of it. Definitely, Urhobo being a direct offshoot of Bini kept its usage.

Okoro is derived from the Edoid word "Oko". Oko When translated into English means Young man.

Only the true sons of Idu (those that maintain their igbo root) and contact with Ndigbo use Okoro to describe men and it is not Okoro standing on its own but reflecting the circumstances of it.
Okorafo = Okoro Afọ (a man born on Afọ market day)
I believe you've now been clarified.
As for before, I was allowing you all air your ignorance to the fullest before clarifying.

Date?

Efewestern:
What's your name?

We have some Urhobo names that sound igboid but aren't.

Umukoro is one good example.

In igbo, it can be translated into Umu-okoro (Children of Okoro)

but in Urhobo it means Umuko-oro (Golden Cup).

If you tell me your name, I will give it its Edoid translation.

Interesting

Abohboy:
Why would she matter to me? Also by this your logic the communities being claimed in Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Iboma and it's environs aren't actually Igbo that they just happen to speamm the language but are Isoko or Ijaw I hope you know you're working against the will of every other Igbo person here. Us Ndokwa, Ukwuani, Bonny, Agbor etc. ARE ALL IGBOS

You claim to know your history and to an extent that of Ndigbo but a lady from Ndokwa East (which your Aboh is the HQ) is proving beyond Reasonable doubt here that both You and her are Isoko and all you can do is attempt to sabotage what Ndigbo have worked for over the years.
Mtcheww, Nwokem go and sit down one place let's enjoy this lady's submission

kmcutez:
What am I proving? That isoko are Igbo.

No.
Just continue. We are learning alot of things here.

kmcutez:
What is your problem?

Clarity. You are proving a lot of things.
Please continue

kmcutez:
We call him okorafo. I’m not sure how it’s spelt. My first and last name sounds Igbo. Most people think I’m Igbo when they hear my name, but both parents are isoko.

Abohboy you hear am?
I don't know what made you think you can deceive us with Igbo sounding names.
See your sister being truthful to everybody

Efewestern:
Okoro is an ancient Edoid word for man. It is used by almost all groups influenced by Edo. Ilaje, Isoko / Urhobo, Itsekiri etc make use of okoro.

examples

Okoro - Man/boy
Okoro-tie/Okotie - Short man
Okoro-Odudu/Okorodudu - Black man

I can't give a translation to Okorafo, maybe it's wrongly spelt.

You know you are lying but you think it's cool because you don't know the implications.
I will allow you to finish before I let you know
